Famous quotes containing the words english, medium and/or high:
“The English masses are lovable: they are kind, decent, tolerant, practical and not stupid. The tragedy is that there are too many of them, and that they are aimless, having outgrown the servile functions for which they were encouraged to multiply. One day these huge crowds will have to seize power because there will be nothing else for them to do, and yet they neither demand power nor are ready to make use of it; they will learn only to be bored in a new way.”
—Cyril Connolly (19031974)
“Life is amazing: and the teacher had better prepare himself to be a medium for that amazement.”
—Edward Blishen (b. 1920)
“A certain degree of miserey [sic] seems inseparable from a high degree of populousness.”
—James Madison (17511836)
